Chapter 60: Things Getting Worse
Danny soon arrived to the movie theater, though he had a reluctant look on his face. He made sure to wear a hoodie in an attempt to hide his identity in case someone saw him.
"I really hope she doesn't show..." Danny muttered. Suddenly, his phone started ringing and Danny saw its Kim's number. "Kim? Hey..." Danny said, happy to hear from the one girl he actually wants to talk to.
"Hey, I know the stunt Bonnie pulled and don't worry, I'll get you out of it..." Kim said over the phone.
"You can?" Danny questioned.
"You're talking to a girl who foils supervillains every day. Believe me, I can foil Bonnie too. I just need something important but as soon as I get it, I'll get you away from her..." Kim said.
"Yoo-hoo, oh Danny..." Bonnie's voice called.
He turned and groaned when he saw his "date" fast approaching.
"Please hurry..." Danny said before hanging up.
Bonnie soon arrived.
"Hey, cutie..." Bonnie said as she wrapped her arm around him.
"Bonnie..." Danny said in an unenthusiastic way.
"Compliment me on my outfit." Bonnie ordered.
Danny frowned. "No..." He said stubbornly.
Bonnie frowned. "Do it, or else..." She threatened...
Danny frowned but he knew he had no choice.
"Nice outfit." Danny said through his teeth.
Bonnie smirked before kissing him on the cheek.
"Aw, you're so sweet... Now come on, I don't want to miss the previews. And would it kill you to smile?" Bonnie complained.
"Maybe..." Danny said sarcastically but Bonnie's glare made her message clear.
Danny plastered a fake grin on his face and escorted her inside to watch the movie.
Kim soon arrived in Bonnie's hotel room, using her many skills to break in without getting caught.
Compared to breaking into supervillain lairs undetected, this is child's play.
She had to lie to leave Ron at the Fentons, since she wanted to do this herself. Not to mention, he's overdue on his homework and with Barkin there, he had to keep his grades up.
Kim searched Bonnie's room for something, anything to get her to back off Danny.
She figured she could find her diary and use it as blackmail but she couldn't find it.
"Darn it... I don't even know of Bonnie even owns a diary..." Kim mumbled.
What I wouldn't give for her to be a robot, a ghost, or even a prehistoric dragon…
She did however find a picture of her, with a mustache and glasses drawn on lying on the dresser.
"Oh, real mature..." She said sarcastically
She kept looking and saw something that disturbed her a bit.
It was a picture of Danny...various pictures with heart drawn on it and the words B+D 4ever.
"In the words of Ron, this is sick and wrong..." Kim said as she backed away a bit.
However, she felt something when her hand was on Bonnie's desk.
She looked.
"What's this?" She said as she picked it up.
Upon examining it, she smirked.
It was a credit card, but it was not Bonnie's.
Kim had the perfect means to make Bonnie back off.
"Spankin'…"
It was Drakken's island lair and they've been quiet as of late.
Drakken had news footage of the "dragon" sightings on his monitor as he hit under his desk like a child.
"Great… one of those things is bad enough. Now we got an army growing!" He muttered.
Shego, who stood next to him, just shook her head.
"Well, that's what you get for working with a bunch of other chumps who wanna rule the world…" She said. "So… what are we supposed to do in the meantime? Another plan to rule the world?"
"With the Jurassic Park flying circus out there?! No chance!" He said. "No way to take over the world while the world has those beasts!"
That's when the sound of a very loud crash happened. It made Drakken jump up and shake in terror.
"What was that?" Shego asked, being much calmer than her employer.
Drakken pressed a button on his desk and the monitor showed one of his men.
"Doctor Drakken, we have an intruder!"
"Kim Possible?"
"Uh… not unless she grew a tail…" The henchman moved the camera he was talking to show what is attacking.
A Terakon, specifically a purple one Danny and Kim already met.
"I am Seastorm!" He shouted as a he blasted the area, with the henchmen running away screaming. "Bring me the one named Doctor Drakken!"
Drakken gulped loudly.
That's when a few things came running into the room, barring claws.
"More of these things?!" Shego questioned as they surrounded her.
"We Nyklaw!" One of them said. "Humans come with us!"
"Uh… no thanks. I don't hang out with reptiles…" Shego said as her hands began to glow.
A few of them came towards her, but Shego reacted with a kick to one's neck, then a blast to another that sent it into a wall.
Two of them tried to claw her, but Shego easily dodged and struck them with full force of a swing of her hands, knocking them into the floor.
"I have one!"
A Nyklaw found Drakken and pulled him out by the collar.
"Shego! Help me!"
Before Shego reacts, a few Nyklaw footsoldiers tackled into and dogpile her.
"We have them!" One shouted.
As Danny and Bonnie found their seats, with Danny carrying popcorn for her, the previews were starting.
It was for a cheesy romance movie nobody would think to see.
Danny was relieved to see nobody he knew was present, but Bonnie had to wrap her arm around him.
"You can't be serious." Danny said.
"Yes, I am. You're my boyfriend now, not Kim's. So you better remember that..." Bonnie said in a serious, threatening tone, while Danny just glared at that. "Also, if we are going to be a couple and you insist on doing this "hero" stuff, then we need some rules..." Bonnie said while doing air quotes for the hero line.
"Such as?" Danny asked with an eye roll, wishing that a ghost could attack him and he could leave.
"I actually made a list..."Bonnie said as she pulled out the list. " 1) I expect that you take me on at least one date a week, and unless the apocalypse happens, no excuses. 2) When we are together, I expect you to treat me like an actual girlfriend and that includes making out. 3) Also, if you speak to me, I expect to be complimented and be spoken with affection. I am also open to the idea of pet names. 4) Also, since I have a rep at Middleton, our relationship should be on the down low there, but since no one knows me here, I am open to it. 5) I will also be calling and texting you and you better answer them, got it?"
Danny sighed in exasperation.
"Sure…"
"Good." Bonnie said in relief. "And while we're waiting for the movie to start..."
She immediately wrapped her other arm around Danny, kissing his cheek repeatedly.
This made his face flushed despite who he is stuck with.
She's making it very easy to forget how unpleasant she is… No! Ignore the feeling! Ignore how… admittedly hot she is!
Bonnie continued her onslaught with no resistance, to her liking.
On Killigan's island, he was practicing golf when he heard the sounds of something from the sky.
He looked up and, to his horror, it was big and flying down towards him.
"Wha in blazes?!"
He's immediately snatched from the ground. It's done by Skyscreech.
"Duff Killigan? I'm Skyscreech… my king needs all the humans to serve us…"
Killigan tried to get out of his grasp.
"Unhand me, you floating old relic!" However, when he saw the distance from where they are and the ground and immediately regretted it. "Never mind! Never mind!"
"Hmph… you're more scared than the more ape-ish ape I captured…" Skyscreech said.
In a lair in the Swiss Alps, something was breaking through the walls, to Dementor's shock.
"WHAT IS HAPPENING?!" He shouted. "Do something, you fools!"
However, his men made a break for it when what broke through looked like a Spinosaurus with wings.
"Professor Dementor?!" Slashfang asked.
"Y…Yah…" Dementor said.
Slashfang grinned evilly.
"My… king… wishes to see you…"
Somewhere in the world is a train, the Circus Gothica train, trying to get as much distance between its human passenger and his ghostly ally with the authorities.
"Well… with that whole scenario lost… may as well find something else to do." Freakshow said. "I've heard there's a way to restore the Reality Gauntlet, we should-" There was the sound of loud stomps following them, much to his surprise. "Do you hear that?"
Lydia looked to what's following them and motioned for Freakshow to turn around.
Once he did, he saw what was following.
"Pale human! Stay where you are, or you will pay!" Trescorn shouted.
Freakshow had to run his eyes just to make sure he wasn't seeing things. Still, he gave his order.
"Lydia!"
She nodded and unleashed her tattoos.
However, Trescorn backhanded each on before leaping and throwing a punch on the ground, causing a shockwave that made the train jump up and go off the rails.
"Oh no…" Freakshow said.
It slid before Trescorn finally caught up and lifted the train in his arms.
The large beast glared down at the two, while Freakshow quivered in fear.
"You are coming with us…"
The movie was over and the two got out.
Bonnie wrapped her arms around one of Danny's, but he tugged it out of her grip.
Bonnie frowned at his attitude before smirking.
All that matters is that he is mine, once he learns to accept that, it'll be perfect. Bonnie smiled at the thought.
However, she suddenly felt her phone ringing.
"Hello?" Bonnie said
"Hello Bonnie..." A voice said.
"Kim! What do you want? I'm on a date..." Bonnie said.
"I know, the one you are forcing Danny to be on..." Kim said.
"That's none of your business... now what do you want and be fast before I block this number?!"
"I found a certain something… two certain platinum cards from Middleton… belonging to C. Rockwaller and L. Rockwaller…"
Panic quickly hit Bonnie.
"HOW DID YOU GET THOSE CREDIT CARDS?!" She exclaimed.
"I have my ways... Anyway, I had Wade do some research and I am amazed that your sisters would be so GENEROUS. I mean, renting a hotel room, among all that shopping you did..." Kim said mockingly.
"Y-yeah…" Bonnie was beginning to sweat profusely now, as Kim's tone got edgier.
"That is... unless they don't know. Which means you STOLE their cards..." Kim said angrily now.
Bonnie was nervous now.
"What do you want?" Bonnie said.
"Drop this blackmail plot on Danny now or I will personally let your sisters know!" Kim said. "Got it?!"
Bonnie quickly groaned.
"This is not over!"
She hung up.
Danny was curious, but he felt something was good might happen.
"Uh… what happened?"
That's when, to his discomfort, she stroked his face.
"Sorry, Danny. Kim Possible is blackmailing me into ending this. Don't worry, I'll keep your secret. One of us has to be the mature one…"
To his annoyance, she still kissed him on the lips. Then she waved innocently to him as she stormed off, taking away the faux-warm look she had for him.
Danny felt relieved, especially when he got a call on his phone. He saw who it was.
"That was you, wasn't it?"
"Yup." Kim said.
"How'd you do that?"
"I have my ways…" Kim says.
"Finally…" Danny said in relief. "Things are getting better…"
"Things are getting worse, Dearest." The holo-Maddie informed Vlad in his laboratory.
Ever since the Faction dissolved, Vlad's been in hiding, only coming out for important mayoral duties, but that was it. He knew the Terakon called Thirorex would recognize him. To make matters worse, there's more of them.
Vlad Masters was pacing back and forth, thinking a way out of this.
"I have no other choice… I'm going to hide in the Ghost Zone." Vlad said. "As far as I can tell, those Mesozoic Monsters have no Ghost Portal, so I might be safe there."
Vlad sighed, he did not want to run away, but these creatures were bred in their prime to be a threat to all creatures, even ghosts. They could not be overshadowed, they're resistant to most ectoplasmic energy and they could track a ghost without needing to see them. He stood no chance against one, much less an army.
That's when the alarm went off.
"Intruders, my love. Not human… or ghost…" Holo-Maddie warned him.
Vlad groaned.
"So much for thinking about it." He morphed. "Dearest, put the entire house on shut down."
"Understood. See you soon!" Holo-Maddie went before going offline.
Vlad then flew into his portal before it deactivated.
Once he did, it shut and the whole house went dark.
Three Nyklaw came into the basement, seeing it was empty.
"Nobody here…" One said.
"The King will not like this…" Another went.
On their island lair, Thirorex looked down with a grin as all of the human members of what was once The Faction were tied up via vines and Nyklaw ready to attack.
"Hello… old friends." Thirorex said with a grin. "It looks like I will be need some… assistance."
"How'd you find any of us?" Monkey Fist demanded.
"We are smarter than you realize… I recognized your appearances and, with technology of our time, we were able to connect with what you call the internet and do searches based on your appearances." Thirorex explained. "Now… as we find the rest of your old cohorts, you will help build what we need to accomplish our goals."
"What's in it for us? Seriously!" Motor Ed questioned.
"For once, he's not wrong." Shego said.
Thirorex only chuckled before he spoke with a terrifying tone while still smiling with all teeth shown.
"Then you join the former inhabitants of this island…"
Well, Danny's secret is safe.
However, it looks like things aren't going to be safe for the world for very long.
The Faction is getting an unintentional reunion.
Let's see what happens next...
Also, gonna try and work on this some more before February.
